Paris Saint-Germain has done its thing again. On this occasion, they have taken the opportunity to get rid of two of their players who had no place in the first team, sending them to Qatari football, a nation where they have a power of influence in their football and the clubs that make it up
The PSG has used a 'ace under the sleeve' to treat to lighten the 'fair play' financial in the season 2023/2024. Although the market of signings already had closed in France, the team of the Park of the Princes has taken advantage of the market catarí to make two beneficial movements for his economy, carrying out transactions with players that were not part of the plans of Luis Enrique: Marco Verratti and Julián Draxler. As it informed L'Équipe, both footballers are about to to join to the Qatar Stars League.
Marco Verratti goes to the To the-Arabi SC
These movements are quite curious, especially if it considers the case of the Italian midfield player, the one who will play in the To the-Arabi SC, that casually is property of the prime of the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad To the Thani, the one who also is owner of Paris Saint-Germain. Although it still has not revealed the quantity of money involved, estimates that it could rondar the 40-50 million euros. It fits to stand out that the Parisian cast has found in the To the Arabi a form to undo of the players that do not explain in his dynamics, since Abdou Diallo, defender of the PSG, also has joined to the same team to the that goes the ex of the Fished by a mount of 15 million euros. Aunado To this, in the 2021/2022 tackled the incorporation of Rafinha Alcántara. A pattern that gives a lot in that think.
Marco Verratti has not received any another offer of the European football, by what had to resort to the football of Middle East in the last moment. It goes like one of the most emblematic players of the club, being the second footballer with more parties contested with the T-shirt of the Paris Saint-Germain, with a total of 416 meetings, only surpassed by Jean-Marc Pilorget.
Julián Draxler goes to the To the-Ahli
On the other hand, the case of Julián Draxler also has some curious appearances. The German player had not received any offer in the football of the Old Continent. His recent cession in the SL Benfica was not very successful, since only it contested 18 parties, annotating two goals and without giving assistances. Although it has not revealed the quantity of the operation, knows that the team that will do with his services is the To the-Ahli, and is very likely that the cost was a lot of elder that his current value in the market, that is of roughly six million euros according to Transfermarkt.
The ex of the Wolfsburgo never attained to establish in the Parisian team, largely because of several injuries that affected big part of his career. Only it contested 198 parties with the T-shirt of the PSG, annotating 26 goals and giving 41 assistances, very far of the expectations that had of him in Paris.
The PSG needed to free mass salarial urgently
The Paris Saint-Germain was wishing to concretise some other exits to relieve his financial situation, since, in addition to have not attained to concretise the sale of Kylian Mbappé, have to face up to his high wage. They have spent at least 349 million euros in signings in this market, including to players like Randal Kolo Muani, Manuel Ugarte and Ousmane Dembélé, for mentioning some, and only have obtained 149 in sales, being the most stood out the one of Neymar by a total of 90 'kilos'.
